Eagle Eye Tail Light & Rear Fog Kit stopped working. No idea what's going on...

Anyone with the Eagle Eye Taillights and rear fog kit ever see this problem? Started today. First, nothing worked on that side. I was alerted to this when I tried using my turn signal and got the fast blinking indication that a bulb was out. Then the turn signal started working and the fast blinking stopped. Next, the brake light started working again. The parking lights won't stay on. Tomorrow I'm pulling the rear fog resistor on that side, and disconnecting it to see if the taillight comes back fully operational. This has me stumped right now. Might just have to go back to my stock set-up for a while.

It's gotta be the wiring that comes down to that taillight from the 3rd

Problem solved, and an updated video coming. This was all caused by a faulty led in the rear fog kit from Taillight Solutions. When we disconnected it you could smell that it was burnt. Soon as we started the vehicle, everything worked again. Plugged the led bulb with harness back in, and everything goes back out. The relay must kick everything off when something goes bad. Soon as we unplugged it and restarted the vehicle, it came right back on. Just need to order a new bulb and do a follow up. Huge headache finally gone!

This thread had me worried, but I'm glad it was simple and straight forward trouble shooting. I've had the aftermarket housings in since January 2016, and I tend to worry about them in the back of my mind.

Right now I'm having an issue with my tail light on the driver side. My brake and signal work on both my eagle and fogs but the parking light is out. It flickered on and off twice when turned on but that's about it. The ribbon part of the tail light stays off. No power to the harness plug either. Is there a separate fuse per side? I'll pull my fogs out over the weekend to see if this is the cause.
